NCAA March Madness 2015-16 V2.5 MINOR UPDATE (1.10.16)

[bigh0rt]

Now let's just hope I don't screw this up...

[reme]

big,

I let you know earlier in my list about WVA needing a cf for Ahmad, could you take a look at it when you get a chance ? his cf isn't just blank it is a brown patch and when you try to play with WVA the whole screen is nothing but that brown patch. The game is unplayable with them.
Thanks

FYI: I've continued running different tests with the new test roster and have not run into any CTD issues.

[bigh0rt]

I got him a CF from monzki. Just haven't released it yet. It'll be included in the full v1.

[mcoll86]

i dont worry about messing it up.

[reme]

Gotcha thanks.
the small list i sent you are the only ones i found in the roster

[bigh0rt]

reme, do me a favor and try this roster. Took the one that worked and just changed the TType of the non-30s, so they no longer have the Retro look. If it works we'll stick with that for aesthetics. If not, we'll stick with what works...

doing that should not cuase any issues. from tt did last year to my roster, it didnt cause issues to have all them be the type

I ran an asso with 6 non 30's with no problem playing the games or simulating them. I ended up simming to the end of the season with no problem.
I don't know what Sko changed, but I didn't think the TType was the problem with the rosters because I could actually play the games, just not simulate them. I would assume if the TTypes were the cause, it would have CTD with both playing and simulating the games having the conflict

Anyway, you can use this roster to remove the retro look.

On the cf issue, I took Ahmad out of the starting lineup so WVA is playable until the 1st release.

I forgot to inform Hort that he can switch back to created team TType. Feel free Hort and change it, i still dont have time for testing but i hope ctd is fixed now.

Yo whats up guys? Im actually making rosters for 2K16 on the xbox one on operation sports. I am a huge follower of college basketball and I can help with rosters and rating players. If you guys need any help with teams then just let me know. I also own 2K14 for the pc so maybe I can help mod. I have a little bit of free time now and then so I will learn as much as I can so I can help contribute to this.

[bigh0rt]

ElectricCityTV, welcome. Always looking for help from the community. RIght now we've got a fully rated and tendency complete Beta roster that should get us through the beginning of the season. As the season progresses, I'm always open to hearing what should be tweaked, how things change, rotations, etc. Always glad to meet another college hoops enthusiast.

Pepis21 has finished the 2015-16 Kansas State Wildcats uniforms, and we continue to march on towards the season!!

If anyone would like/be willing to make some custom adidas/nike/under armour accessories that we can incorporate into the Global to make things even deeper and more visually accurate, it would be greatly appreciated. I've made some, and grabbed some that others have contributed, but there's always more, and we have so many talented people here that I know we can do a better job than I've done. Feel free to think outside the box (e.g. overwriting the full leg sleeve with the adidas 'derek rose' leg sleeves with the ankle braces that were popular a year or two ago... anyone who can make an arm sleeve with that adidas 'camo' pattern would be greatly appreciated).

ill take a look at the modding tool you guys got and Ill see what I can do.

[bigh0rt]

slimm, finally was able to play a game with your HUMvsCPU settings. A few notes...

-- It's hard!! In reality, I'm probably just not that good since I spend more time modding than playing. I was down by 5 - 9 for essentially the duration of the game to UMass, controlling a superior Maryland team. Not that it's a bad thing, but it was definitely challenging.
-- It felt great, in general. I saw so many more tipped rebounds than I've ever seen, and they felt more authentic than I've ever felt they had before when playing. If I had good positioning, I almost always got it on either end. If I didn't, I didn't. It felt fair.
-- I'd like to see more blocks. Top NCAA teams can get 5, 6, 7 or more per game. With no Defensive 3 Seconds Rule, big men can camp out in the paint and wait to swat balls (I removed that Rule in the Settings file).
-- Hustle (it may have a different name, but I think it's hustle), I think should be ramped up to 100 in Settings, and a Global Roster adjustment so everyone has 120, or whatever the max RED MC allows is. You see guys flying all over the place for loose balls, etc. just like you do in an NCAA game then.
-- Obviously I have a lot more playing to do, but it really felt great overall. Awesome work.

Other notes, unrelated:
-- I can't get Maryland's logo to appropriately show in the scoreboard (it's a transparent background). I'm going to rebuild the logo from scratch, but I think I've already done that previously with no luck...
-- I started a game of Maryland @ Indiana, and it CTD immediately when loading, and I thought I saw an AVAILABLE in the starting lineup of one of the teams, but checked in RED MC and it shouldn't be the case.
-- Spent the better part of this afternoon creating custom socks and putting them in HD into the Global. Same with arm and leg sleeves. You'll see a lot of new and cool stuff, and most textures have gone from 128x128 to 1024x1024 and look GREAT in game.

Release SOON????

I really wanted to help you with logos files, but after release my final stuff i still have a lot of work to do. I can propose my logos files(not conflicted with original logos) but this means you will have to change logos in teams and jerseys tab. Dont know what is better for you. You dont see logo in game because you probably used one of non existing file, originally by 2k. Game cant corespond with non original logoxxx file.

I have no problem making a new file called logomaryland.iff, for example, and using that, and re-naming in the Teams and Jerseys tab. If that will fix the scoreboard issue that's an easy fix. I don't think that will work for Oklahoma, however, since their issue is within the logos_large.iff, etc. files (and honestly, I don't really care if that gets fixed or not -- although if it's as simple as swapping a GID, and re-naming the team and logo files, and finding the right logo in the logos_large.iff etc. files, I wouldn't be opposed to that, either).

Maybe i missunderstand you, but one more time game cant corespond with logomaryland.iff, there is no logomaryland.iff in logos_large(tiny, medium etc) and this file is set file for all logos file. So if you change name of the logo from(for example) logo512 to logomaryland.iff it will show up but not everywhere. This is how i understand logos_large etc. For Oklahoma youve used logo514, this file dont exist in default 2k folder, this is why there is blank logo for Oklahoma because game is trying to find logo514 in logos_large(small, tine etc) and cant find it.
Ok nvm, if you want to use my logos files, this is how it should look. Let me know if youre interested and you will be able to change it in teams tab and jerseys tab and i will send you logos files and set logos files.

I'll probably just give it a shot on my own. All I need to do are find two Retro teams with logos, determine their GID, locate the appropriate file in the logos_large.iff file, overwrite, and change the file names to logoXXX.iff and teamXXX.iff (are there any other files that need renaming? I don't think so cause I used names for arenas and floors and jerseys), and then just change the GID numbers in the Teams and Arenas tabs.
